The Indian National Congress (INC) is a political party in India. It was founded in 1885 by Allan Octavian Hume, a retired British civil servant. The INC was the main party in the Indian independence movement, and its leader, Mahatma Gandhi, led the country to independence in 1947.
The INC has held its annual session in Gujarat three times before independence. The first session was held in Ahmedabad in 1901, the second session was held in Surat in 1902, and the third session was held in Ahmedabad again in 1903.
The first session of the INC in Gujarat was held in Ahmedabad in 1901. The session was attended by over 1,000 delegates from all over India. The main topic of discussion at the session was the Swadeshi movement, which was a movement to boycott British goods and promote Indian-made goods.
The second session of the INC in Gujarat was held in Surat in 1902. The session was attended by over 2,000 delegates from all over India. The main topic of discussion at the session was the partition of Bengal, which was a proposal to divide the province of Bengal into two provinces, one for Hindus and one for Muslims.
The third session of the INC in Gujarat was held in Ahmedabad again in 1903. The session was attended by over 3,000 delegates from all over India. The main topic of discussion at the session was the Indian Councils Act of 1892, which was a law that increased the number of elected members in the Indian legislative councils.
The INC has continued to hold its annual session in Gujarat after independence. The most recent session was held in Ahmedabad in 2019.
